there are also some activities you cant do while cloaked. colonizing, launching units or deploying mines, or sweeping mines, for example. to get an idea of your resource modifyers for population and other things, take a look at the ABILITY tab when you are looking at a planet.

Actually units and mines can be deployed while cloaked. You cannot sweep while cloaked though, that is correct. Colonizing I will take your word for. I never put a cloak on a colony ship myself that I can remember.
